Second Master Xue of the Red Chamber has space

Chapter 26 Doing Business with Bandits
But since Baishanying's lock became famous, his chivalrous reputation has spread all over the world. Many poor people have been rescued by Baishanying, and even the number of lying down near Baitou Mountain in spring has decreased a lot.

Because of this, Baishan Ying's gang grew very fast, and many people came to join the group because of his reputation, firstly to make a living, and secondly, to borrow his heroic name, so that they can travel in the world.

Xue Yi couldn't help looking back curiously, but he met Bai Shanying's eyes.There was a cold light in the gray and white pupils, and even a well-informed person like Xue Yi couldn't help but shudder.

At this time, the shopkeeper of the medical center was grabbed by the collar by a gangster, and he was so frightened that his legs were trembling, and he said with snot and tears: "Master Bai, I have never seen Mrs. Madam's illness. I really healed it." No, it’s useless even if you kill me, why don’t you let the villain go quickly, maybe there will be a master who can treat it in the next clinic? Don’t waste Madam’s time because of the villain.”

After Bai Shanying heard this, he looked at the shopkeeper coldly, but didn't speak, but the shopkeeper was so frightened that his pores stood up.But he glared at him, turned around and was about to leave, and he didn't want to waste any more time.

Xue Yi suddenly shouted: "Master Bai, please stay."

Bai Shanying looked back and recognized him.Isn't this the royal merchant Master Xue from the south?I heard that the property he brought has been extorted by the bandits near Fengtian. Why hasn't this man left yet?
Looking Xue Yi up and down, Bai Shanying said: "What's the matter, Mr. Xue? I'm in a hurry to see my wife. I'll talk about it if it's not something important."

Although the words were very polite, this person didn't take Xue Yi seriously, and he was about to leave after speaking.

Xue Yi grabbed his sleeve and said, "Master Bai, don't rush away. You also know that I am a merchant, and there are doctors in the caravan. Seeing that Lord Bai loves his wife, I just remembered, why don't we let our southerners Check with the doctor, maybe it's a disease that hasn't happened in the north, and it's unknown if the doctors in the south can cure it. If we can't cure it, then Mr. Bai will go to other places to ask, and it won't take long to feel the pulse anyway. no?"

After hearing this, Bai Shanying immediately said: "Then invite the doctor from Mr. Xue's family to take a look."

"Master, this..."

A man next to him stood up and seemed to have something to say, but Bai Shanying raised his hand to stop him.Everyone in Baishanying has different complexions.

Xue Yi ordered a few times, and Dr. Hu who followed him in the caravan came out to salute everyone.This man was in his thirties, with a goatee and a shrewd face.

Bai Shanying was also polite, and let him in front of the stretcher carrying his wife.Dr. Hu took out a silk handkerchief to cover Mrs. Bai's wrist and felt his pulse.

Not long after, Dr. Hu smiled: "Hahahaha, so that's the case. Lord Bai, don't panic, I can not only cure your wife's illness, but also keep everyone safe. Please rest assured, Lord Bai."

Bai Shanying was stunned: "What's 'both big and small'?"

Dr. Hu looked at the shopkeeper of the medical center who was sweating profusely, and he had a general idea in his heart, and explained: "Mrs. Your Madam's illness is caused by a lump of blood that persists in her chest. It is actually very simple to treat it. You only need to prescribe a card of blood circulation." The prescription for dredging collaterals is not a big problem. The only difficulty is that Mrs. Zun has been pregnant for two months, and the fetal image is unstable. If the prescription goes on like this, the tire will definitely slip, so the shopkeeper dare not explain the whole story , just saying it can’t be cured.”

Bai Shanying looked at the shopkeeper of the medical center with questioning eyes, and the shopkeeper refused to accept it: "So what if you see it? People can't wake up if the congestion doesn't disperse, and if people wake up, the fetus can't be saved. Fengtian is so big, I'm afraid who Doctors will say it can’t be cured, so what’s the magic pill that won’t work for you?”

Dr. Hu smiled: "Ignorant quack doctors, there is only one Fengtian in the whole world, what good medicine have you seen?"

As he said that, he took out a porcelain bottle from his medicine box, and handed it to Bai Shanying: "Master Bai, this is an anti-fetal pill for the palace. All the ladies in the palace take this if they are pregnant. If it works, don't use it." Let’s talk about it? Let’s give Madam a pill first, and stabilize the fetal image first. As for the blood congestion, just use the method of pricking acupuncture points with golden needles to force it out. It’s better for pregnant people to not take medicine or not .”

What Dr. Hu said was absolutely sure, Bai Shanying didn't dare to delay, and settled his wife and the people he brought with him in the big inn where Xue Yi used to live. My son's life was saved.

This was really not a difficult task for the well-informed Dr. Hu. Within three days, Bai Shanying's wife had woken up, and the fetus in her womb was safe and sound.

Although Bai Shanying is a bandit, he is also a tough man with tenderness. Knowing that the lives of his wife and children were saved by Xue Yi's kindness in a moment, he is not ambiguous. The gangsters around Fengtian "deal with each other" and wanted to get back Xue Yi's extorted property.

Xue Yi hurriedly stopped him and said, "Master Bai, don't bother with that, just treat it as Xue who broke the fortune and avoided disaster. If you really have the heart to repay your kindness, I have a few good words here, as long as you listen carefully, I have nothing else to say."

Xue Yi was frightened by these bandits, how dare he let Bai Shanying go out to cause trouble for him?Originally, the reason why he had the courage to hold Bai Shanying back then was to gamble. The first bet was that Bai Shanying was benevolent and righteous, even if he could not save his wife, he would not be killed; Only with a favor can we talk about trade matters. No matter whether he agrees or not in the end, at least he has a way.If luck makes things happen, the worst thing is that I will go north to the Baitou Mountain area to do business in the future, and abandon the base of Fengtian Mansion.

How could Baishanying not know that Xue Yi's trip was for business, but in their territory, no businessman dared to do business with bandits, and no one took Xue Yi's words seriously.

But since Xue Yi said this today, Bai Shanying naturally wanted to give him this face, so he sat down and toasted a bowl of wine, and listened carefully to what he had to say.

Xue Yi said: "I'm afraid Bai Ye has already heard about the purpose of my trip. In fact, I sincerely want to find someone to do business with. Otherwise, I wouldn't offer such a generous meeting gift. Who knows where this place is?" No one is willing to listen to what I have to say.

We know that people like you, Bai Ye, look down on us for doing business, but the Northeast region is inherently cold, and the big families you like can be doomed, but this is not a common law after all.Furthermore, the more people there are, the harder it is to support them, isn't it?

It doesn't cost you anything, anyway, my fleet also goes to Fengtian every year to catch up with the big collection of goods. If I have good things in my hand, I will go to you to collect them, which is two times more than the market price. Cheng went to collect the goods from the master.When my fleet goes south to sell things, I will give you a [-]% bonus. This year, you will have more income in your hands, and you will be able to support more people. It will be more convenient, right? "

Xue Yi said it so sincerely, in fact, some business-minded people should have thought about it long ago.Bai Shanying was also thinking to himself, whenever he got some valuable things in his hand, he knew to sell them to old Russians, and they would give a higher price.

Those fur goods and medicinal herbs piled up in his hills are useless. They have all kinds of appearances. It's better to give it to the imperial merchant. It doesn't matter what the price is or what the dividend is. Just look at his head. How much silver can I get for this business, if the money is rich, it is not impossible to start this business with the Xue family.

Thinking of this, Bai Shanying agreed: "Eunuch saved the lives of my wife and children, what's so difficult about this? I just need to trouble Eunuch to accompany me to Mount Baitou."

Xue Yi hurriedly nodded in agreement.

When he came this time, he still filled six or seven boats, but now there are only two boats left.Other ships had their cargo and cargo seized by bandits, which really caused Xue Yi physical pain for a long time.

When they came to Mount Baitou, Bai Shanying took out the goods he had stockpiled, and they were of various appearances, but Xue Yi's purchase price was already [-]% higher than the market price, but it was still very cheap.

And he wasn't very picky, he wanted everything that could be sold at a price in the capital.Just like that, the two boats were fully loaded, escorted by Bai Shanying himself, and they went south to Beijing safely.

And the value of the goods from these two ships turned around in the capital far exceeded Baishanying's expectations. Within three months, Xue Yi, together with the purchase price and the bonus for selling the goods, gave Baishanying a total of 1000 taels of gold. 1 taels of silver.

Bai Shanying looked at the silver note in his hand, he couldn't believe it, it was 1 taels of silver!
Although as a bandit leader, he has never seen 1 taels of silver, but this money is too easy to come by. Move things to the Xue family's merchant ship, and then spend some time to send his caravan out of the Northeast boundary, and just earn 1 taels of snowflake silver!
If he really comes up with some good things in the future, how much will he earn? !

Maybe it's because the life of bandits is not easy.

In fact, it is very difficult for the thieves team in the Northeast to really develop.The poor natural environment leads to the lack of food and clothing for the common people. Even the rich and wealthy landlords live a far from satisfactory life. No one lives by looting and looting. They will also go hunting in the mountains when the weather is warm. Farming, picking, and often selling the goods.

Backed by the white mountains and black waters, Baishanying and the others had a large number of people, and the good mountain and fur goods in their hands were better than theirs, if not more than those in the market.Even though they were bandits, they would trade them for silver if they had something in their hands, otherwise it would be garbage if they left it for nothing, but even if they sold it, the price would be the same, far less profitable than selling it to the Xue family caravan.

Seeing the sweetness, Baishanying really trusted Xue Yi, and immediately made a treaty with Xue Yi. Xue Yi came to the north regularly every year to pull goods, and Baishanying was responsible for receiving and delivering the goods and ensuring that Xue's caravan was in the Northeast. security issues.
